#ItsOK Linky – Week 34

Well, it has been a crazy week in my household! From my bonus daughter settling in to Year 11 GCSE studying and homework, and a broken phone, to my eldest daughter going away for her first ever school residential, and my youngest feeling like a lost little puppy – not really, she’s loved it and milked it completely.

I on the other hand have realised that I am a selfish mother, who does not like her children to be away from her, or have her mothering duties covered by any other person on the planet. So yes, I will be at the school at 14.00 to wait for my child to arrive back, even though we have been told to only expect them at normal pick up time, which is 15.00. Whatevs, I will be there.

Fortunately I am hosting the #ItsOK linky this week which is just the perfect thing to distract me back from the cliff edge of maternal irrationality!

In other news, I’m also doing my first ever sponsored walk this weekend raising money for the Alzheimer’s Society. I’ll be walking for my gran and my mom who is her carer. If you fancy donating your hard earned money, please click the button below. I would be so very grateful for your support.

So, without further adieu, let’s get the show on the road.

The #ItsOK Featured Blogger

Congratulations to Charlotte from Team Stein with her post: Back To Routine & Feeling A Little Lost. I’m so glad that Nicole chose this one. Charlotte managed to say all the things I was feeling last week about being overwhelmed, underwhelmed and procrastinating. Grab your snazzy Featured Blogger badge below lovely and add it to your post or sidebar.

Please join in to our lovely linky with all your personal parenting posts. They can be anything from heartfelt to funny, and everything in between. Anything parenting related with the exception of reviews or sponsored posts is welcome.
